Hey guys and gals,

I'm Hurst from Kentucky. I just wanted to introduce myself. I just got an 08 f450 and am looking to do some mods for mileage and reliability, and who's kidding, some extra power too! I figured this might be a good place to start looking for information.

hey hurst! welcome to diesel bombers!

im from Kentucky also. what county are you located in?

 

I'm from Woodford County, but I'm currently in Alberta, Canada for the winter doing work in the oil fields... but I am back in KY all the time when I'm off. I'm about 35 minutes from Thoroughbred diesel west on I64 if you ever make it up my way.

i live in pike county, but every couple weeks i go visit my family in Georgetown/Scott county, touches woodford county i believe, but i dont usually go outside of scott county when im down visiting. cool to see someone close! i lived in Scott for about 7 years

 

I make it over to Georgetown quite a bit when I am home (a lot of the time they have the cheapest fuel around too!). When I'm home, it's hard for me not to make a trip to Bevins or Giles to get equipment parts. Woodford and Scott Co. definitely are hot beds for diesel trucks in Central KY

 

oh i know, i see tons of diesels around georgetown! not so much back home in Pike county. Jim Bevins was my step dad for about 3 years

 

Never met him, but definitely spent enough on parts at his Georgetown dealership I probably should

 

haha, hes a great guy! i was between ages 6 and 9 when my mom and him were married, so i got a lot of fun tractor rides!

 

I think once you get started on tractors at that age, diesel-powered anything is in your blood! I started out riding tractors with my Dad on the farm when I was just old enough to pee straight and was driving them by the time I was 9 or 10. After that, I was hooked! It's amazing how addictive diesel can be

 

diesel is very addictive... sadly its very expensive too

post some pictures of your truck man!
